Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, built during the Soviet era and one of the 10 biggest in the world, has been engulfed by fighting between Russian and Ukrainian troops in recent weeks, fueling concerns of a nuclear catastrophe.
Here is a look at the current situation:

Donald Trump’s onetime lawyer says the former president faces a “very high” chance of being indicted — but not for stashing top-secret documents at his Florida resort home.
“America is back” and will lead the way in manufacturing semiconductor chips for defense technologies and a wide range of critical goods from cars to cell phones, President Joe Biden declared Friday at a groundbreaking for the new Intel Corp. semiconductor complex in Ohio.
Jack Colletto is a rare two-way player for Oregon State, playing both at inside linebacker and at running back. He was all over the field in Oregon State’s season-opening 34-17 victory over Boise State. He had three tackles and recovered a fumble on defense, and ran for a 41-yard touchdown on offense. With the season-opening win against the Broncos in hand, the Beavers visit Fresno State on Saturday.
South Carolina Senators are eyeing a number of improvements to women's and children's health after sending a new abortion ban back to the House. The Senate on Thursday passed a bill revising the state's previous six-week ban, rejecting a total abortion ban that would not have made exceptions for pregnancies caused by rape or incest. Now House lawmakers must weigh the proposal against the much more restrictive version they passed last week. Meanwhile, Republicans are seeking reforms to the foster care system in the wake of these abortion debates. Democrats want to see improvements to sex education. But some Republicans are wary that this talk will be backed up with action when they return for a regular session this January.
The Los Angeles Rams’ honeymoon from their Super Bowl championship didn’t even last until the first Sunday of the next regular season. Their 31-10 thrashing from the Buffalo Bills on Thursday night was a brutal reminder that last season’s title and even the last half-decade of success under Sean McVay guarantees the Rams nothing in a new year. While Los Angeles still has elite talent, it couldn’t keep up with Buffalo, widely considered to be a top contender for the crown. The Rams’ best opponents will all be hungry for what they have, and this blowout defeat was a quick reminder.
A star witness who testified against others in the plot to kidnap Michigan’s governor wants a judge to reduce his prison sentence and release him from custody. Ty Garbin wants more than four years cut off his six-year sentence for conspiracy. Prosecutors agree that a break is justified, but they’re recommending only a three-year reduction. The decision rests with federal Judge Robert Jonker. Garbin has been in custody for about two years since his arrest in 2020. He quickly cooperated and pleaded guilty to conspiring to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. Two other men were convicted but two more were acquitted. A sixth man, Kaleb Franks, also pleaded guilty and testified for the government.

A new report says the federal agency that investigates chemical accidents is hindered by a lack of staffing, leadership disputes and a backlog of investigations that threaten its ability to protect people and the environment. The report by the Environmental Protection Agency’s inspector general says the U.S. Chemical Safety Board is “challenged by vacancies in mission-critical positions and an inability to fully use the resources Congress allocated″ to it. The report comes after the board’s former chairwoman resigned amid criticism about extravagant spending, ongoing disputes with other board members and a backlog of investigations.
A Missouri judge has ruled that voters will decide whether to legalize recreational marijuana during the Nov. 8 election. Cole County Circuit Judge Cotton Walker on Friday tossed out a lawsuit that sought to remove the question from the ballot. Walker ruled that the woman suing didn't prove she's a Missouri resident, which would have been required for her lawsuit to continue. Walker noted that he would have ruled against her claims even if she had proven her Missouri residency. The woman's attorneys argued that the ballot initiative was unconstitutionally broad. They also said the secretary of state's office overstepped its bounds by re-checking voter signatures to get the question on the ballot.
The government has renamed more than two dozen lakes and other sites on federal land in Wisconsin to remove a racist term for a Native American woman. The changes announced Thursday capped a nearly yearlong process that began when Interior Secretary Deb Haaland, an American Indian, took office in 2021 and worked to remove the offensive word from the names of nearly 650 peaks, lakes, streams and other places nationwide. In Wisconsin, there are 28 places that have been renamed including Squaw Island in Door County, now named Keyes Island. Chairman of the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin, Ron Corn Sr., told WLUK-TV he is gratified that the changes are finally being made.
CHICAGO — On the third straight day of testimony from R. Kelly’s co-defendant and former business manager, prosecutors sought to portray him as too much of an insider to ever have been ignorant of Kelly’s true actions — and indicated that he had a significant financial interest in making sur…
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris says he's comfortable taking on more of a leadership role as he enters his second season, and his teammates seem to agree. Harris was voted one of Pittsburgh's five captains for 2022. It's a role Harris says he shied away from earlier in his life. The 24-year-old credits the help of his teammates and coaches for getting him prepared to take on more responsibility. Harris set a franchise rookie record by rushing for 1,200 yards in 2021. Harris and the Steelers start the 2022 season at defending AFC champion Cincinnati.
A federal judge in Phoenix has blocked enforcement of a new Arizona law restricting the filming of police. U.S. District Judge John Tuchi agreed with the American Civil Liberties Union and multiple media organizations that the law appeared to violate the First Amendment. He issued a preliminary injunction Friday. The law was slated to take effect Sept. 24. Republican Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich and the prosecutor and sheriff’s office in Maricopa County told the judge they would not defend the law. The judge gave the Legislature a week to decide if it will do so. Bystander cellphone videos are largely credited with revealing police misconduct and reshaping the conversation around police transparency.
As the United Kingdom mourns a beloved queen, the nation is already wondering how King Charles III will reign and whether his monarchy will depart from the traditions of his mother. If his first full day on the throne is any indication, Charles seemed ready to chart at least a slightly different course. When the new king traveled to Buckingham Palace for the first time Friday, his limousine snaked through a sea of spectators then stopped short of the palace gates before Charles got out and shook hands with well-wishers. He looked more like a U.S. president on the campaign trail than the latest steward of a 1,000-year-old hereditary monarchy.
Oregon utilities began shutting down power to thousands of customers on Friday as dry easterly winds swept into the region, raising the risk of wildfire danger. Portland General Electric halted power in the Columbia River Gorge and around Mount Hood and a second power company was poised to do the same Friday. More than 40,000 customers will likely lose power in planned shutoffs as winds of up to 60 mph hit some areas. Authorities urged residents to charge cellphones and be ready to evacuate. Power shut-offs due to extreme fire weather, common in California, are new to the Pacific Northwest.
Khamzat Chimaev has missed weight for the main event at UFC 279. He came in 7 1/2 pounds over the welterweight limit, throwing his showdown with Nate Diaz into doubt. Chimaev is a Chechen-born Swede considered one of mixed martial arts’ top rising stars. But he weighed 178.5 pounds Friday morning at the UFC Apex Gym. That’s far over the maximum 171 pounds. The UFC didn’t immediately announce whether Diaz or Chimaev will stay on the pay-per-view card, either in two new bouts or against each other at a catchweight that would mean an enormous boost in pay for the 37-year-old Diaz.
A federal judge’s ruling in Texas has thrown into question whether millions of insured Americans will continue to receive some preventive medical services, such as cancer screenings and drugs that protect people from HIV infection, without making a copayment.
Jimmie Johnson says sponsor Carvana has agreed to fund next year’s racing endeavors. The seven-time NASCAR champion will use the next few weeks to determine his 2023 schedule. Johnson just a week ago said he was still seeking funding for a full IndyCar season. But he’s also impatiently awaiting IndyCar’s upcoming schedule because he wants to be part of NASCAR’s special project to take a Hendrick Motorsports entry to the 24 Hours of Le Mans. He’s not closed the door on running another NASCAR race some day, and explained at Laguna Seca Raceway that he has multiple offers to compete in a variety of motorsports series.
Chase Elliott’s playoff opener was over early after NASCAR's regular-season Cup Series champion lost control of his No. 9 Chevrolet and was hit by Chase Briscoe last weekend at Darlington. The result was a 36th place finish and a big blow to Elliott's title hopes. But the 2020 champ only dropped from the top seed to ninth entering Sunday's race at Kansas Speedway. That is the second of three stops before the playoff field is whittled from 16 to 12. Elliott is still very much in the title hunt.
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is stressing his country will never abandon the nuclear weapons and missiles it needs to counter hostilities from the United States. He accuses the U.S. of pushing a pressure campaign aimed at weakening the North’s defenses and eventually collapsing his government. State media said Friday that North Korea’s rubber-stamp parliament also passed a law that requires North Korea’s military to “automatically” execute nuclear strikes against enemy forces if its leadership comes under attack. Kim also addressed domestic issues in his speech, saying North Korea would begin its long-delayed rollout of COVID-19 vaccines in November. He didn’t give specifics.
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep 9, 2022--
Pro Bowl defensive end Frank Clark returned to practice with the Kansas City Chiefs on Friday and coach Andy Reid said he should be available when the defending AFC West champions open their season at Arizona. Clark missed Thursday’s practice with an illness. Reid also said he has not heard from the NFL about any potential disciplinary action for Clark, who pleaded no contest this week in Los Angeles to two counts of misdemeanor possession of an assault weapon from separate incidents last year. Clark was sentenced to one year of probation and 40 hours of community service.
Elvis. Elton John. Freddie Mercury. They’ve all gotten the biopic treatment. Now, it’s Weird Al Yankovic’s turn. “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story” premiered early Friday at the Toronto International Film Festival, where it is surely among the most absurd films playing. It's fittingly more a parody of a biopic than a sober portrait of the “White & Nerdy” singer and comedian. Yankovic co-wrote it and produced it. Daniel Radcliffe stars as Yankovic. Roku will release the film in November. Yankovic says it's a movie that “shouldn't exist” — and that's why it's funny.
Sheriff: Three children among the five found dead of gunshot wounds at Maryland home.
So. Many. Hawaiian. Shirts. You wouldn't think it would be possible for there to be that many Hawaiian shirts somewhere in Toronto in September, but the world premiere of "Weird: The Al Yankovic Story" on the first night of the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival was no ordinary night.
Rajeev Ram and Joe Salisbury became the second team in the professional era to repeat as U.S. Open men’s doubles champions, beating Wesley Koolhof and Neal Skupski 7-6 (4), 7-5. The top-seeded team joined the Hall of Fame duo of Todd Woodbridge and Mark Woodforde in 1995 and ’96 as the only teams to go back-to-back in New York since 1968. Salisbury ensured he will remain the No. 1 player in the doubles rankings with his 17th straight U.S. Open win, combining men’s and mixed doubles. Koolhof and Skupski, the No. 2 seeds, were playing at the U.S. Open for the first time as a team.
It's not just quarterback Russell Wilson who's a newcomer in Denver. The Broncos sport a rookie head coach in Nathaniel Hackett and three first-time coordinators in Ejiro Evero, Justin Ootten and Dwayne Stukes. They also have a new team president and new owners. Wilson swears he's not nervous for his Broncos debut Monday night in Seattle and Hackett concurs, pointing to his many years in the NFL as an assistant coach. Veteran kicker Brandon McManus welcomes all the fresh faces at Broncos headquarters and the team tries to snap out of a six-year playoff drought in 2022.
Russians have started voting in the country’s first election since the Kremlin sent troops into Ukraine in February. Voters on Friday began casting ballots to elect more than 31,000 officials, legislators and local council members across the country’s 82 regions. Many opposition politicians have been barred from running in the three-day vote that takes place both at polling stations and online. While some prominent opposition politicians have been jailed or barred from running, over a 100 independent candidates are running for municipal councils in Moscow. Municipal councils, the lowest level of local governance with little real powers, have become important battlegrounds for Russian opposition politicians who have been cut off from competing in national races.
A bankruptcy judge in Delaware has approved a $2.46 billion Chapter 11 reorganization plan for the Boy Scouts of America, a decision that will directly impact more than 80,000 sexual abuse survivors
Backers of a campaign targeting a Colorado lawmaker who left the GOP and joined the Democratic Party have received the go-ahead to collect voter signatures in their bid to force a recall election. State Sen. Kevin Priola of suburban Denver cited his disgust with the Republican Party’s embrace of discredited 2020 election conspiracies when he announced his decision to switch parties in August. Colorado’s secretary of state’s office said Friday it had approved a recall petition and that petitioners have until Nov. 8 to collect enough signatures to force an eventual recall vote. Numerous assertions that the 2020 presidential election was stolen have been proven false.

The International Olympic Committee has finally approved its human rights strategy. It completed a years-long process months after the Beijing Olympics brought scrutiny on how sports engage with a host nation’s record on discrimination and civil liberties. The 50-page Olympic document was guided by United Nations principles. It comes the week after the outgoing U.N. human rights chief suggested China’s detention of Uyghurs and other ethnic groups may be a crime against humanity. The IOC says its new rights framework “will fundamentally shape the working practices of the IOC, the Olympic Games and the Olympic movement.”
Eager to root for viewer favorites “Yellowstone” or “NCIS” or “Young Sheldon” during Monday night’s Emmy Awards? Save your breath. Those shows and other ratings successes failed to make a dent in the nominations. Instead, series that are cooler or critically acclaimed got nods, such as “Stranger Things.” While it may be frustrating to fans, observers consider such omissions inevitable in the age of so-called peak TV. It's also proof that television’s most prestigious honor is doing its job. TV academy voters favor innovative shows on streaming services and premium cable, like Netflix's “Squid Game.” The Emmys air Monday on NBC with Kenan Thompson as host.
